Whenever I buy on CL or FB I take a snap of the auction and a copy of the auction pics including text in case I have to go back to the seller. Nice find....Doug

Could you add a photo of the rear of the phone?
Also a photo looking down on the receiver, and another of inside the receiver?

Thanks.

I will be casting some replacement shells for the pony some time soon if you decide to repair that one. If not, I will give you $$ what you paid for the whole phone for it! ;-)  I have about 6 of them waiting on me to make parts!
